01The take
The Fracture.
The Morocco episode does work the rest of the season can't quite match.
02The shape of the season
A rhythm worth tracking.
Morocco is the right location for a show circling familiar territory — the setting demands a different register than another European hotel. Diana Jenkins's arrival adds a point of view with a distinct social context. The San Francisco leg works less hard. A season where the format feels its own weight, the location doing more editorial lifting than the cast — interesting in patches, uneven across the full run.
03Where it sits in the canon
The #12 slot.
Slot #12 of 15 in the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Editor's Canon. The seasons on either side show what I ranked it against.
